Day 2, 13:50 - How Children Taught Me Joy of Programming While Teaching Them Coding

Teaching others is a great way of learning new skills. That knows almost everyone. But still we do not use this opportunity. We don't have time for it, we are afraid of speaking in public or we do not feel good enough to teach others. So how about starting with teaching children? You teach them basics, so you definitely have the skills needed and this is an empathic audience so no worries you will fail. I've tried this and now I would like to tell you why it is so good! And what experiences I gained which I wouldn't get teaching adults. And, of course, how to do this and how it looks like.
